Recently I wrote an article explaining how you could defeat, using nonviolent strategy, the US coup attempt that is taking place in your country. See ‘A Nonviolent Strategy to Defeat the US Coup Attempt in Venezuela’.

I would like to complement that article by now briefly explaining how you can also defeat a military invasion by the United States and any collaborating invaders by using a strategy of nonviolent defense as well.

BANGKOK, Thailand -- Thailand's junta-appointed Election Commission
disqualified a princess from running for prime minister in next
month's polls, after her surprise candidacy displeased her powerful
brother King Maha Vajiralongkorn and dangerously divided this country.

"All members of the royal family must abide by the king's principle of
staying above politics, maintaining political impartiality, and they
cannot take up political office," the commission said February 11.

The coup-installed military government meanwhile was investigating an
allegedly forged official document which appeared on social media
claiming Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha fired Army Chief Gen. Apirat
Kongsompong and other armed forces officers.

"Rumors. We are investigating. Fake news," Mr. Prayuth told reporters
February 11, referring to the alleged document which sparked Twitter
to trend #coup February 10 night.

February is the month that is set aside for Black/African American history. For twenty-eight days people who live in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Ireland and Canada will be indoctrinated with information and facts about known and unknown Black/African American people who have contributed to either their race, society or America.

The word indoctrinate means to teach a person or group of people to accept a set of beliefs uncritically. Some synonyms for indoctrinate are brainwash, re-educate, persuade, convince, condition, discipline and mold. Diaspora is the dispersion of any people from their original homeland. In this case the Africans that were dispersed into America as slaves. 

BANGKOK, Thailand -- Gene editing tools such as CRISPR are helping
researchers who hope to cure cancer and other problems involving DNA,
but "making embryos in a dish" is a much easier way to check for
mutations before implanting an embryo in a mother's uterus, according
to an American Cancer Society professor.

"Gene editing, or CRISPR, is enormously helpful for us at the research
level," said Mary-Clare King, American Cancer Society professor of
Genome Sciences and Medicine at Seattle's University of Washington.

"We work with CRISPR using cells in plates. We alter the cells and we
see what works, and what doesn't, by way of treating the cells that
we've altered. I think of it as a research tool," Ms. King said in an
interview on February 1.

"I don't think of it as a tool that will ever be deployed for actually
correcting these kinds of cells, because there are a lot of easier
ways to do it."

Ms. King was visiting Bangkok to receive Thailand's annual Prince
Mahidol Award along with three other recipients for their work in
